Re: [microsound]enviromental influence-canadian winter

[Gregory Elliott <Spagirus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All this talk about sounds in cold weather has me thinking about a field recording project I had thought of. Record the same sound (or at least roughly the same kind of sound) in cold and hot weather. Possibly record the exact same sound in summer and winter. But the further possibility I had thought of would be to have someone in, say Canada, record something that has a pretty standard sound in their extreme cold conditions. And then have someone else record that thing in a place with more extreme hot conditions like where I live in Oklahoma. I had thought to do this project in winter and summer, just record the same thing, and I still might. But, I think a drastic temperature difference that I don't have access to would be even better. Any takers? The only thing to do would be to decide what that standard sound would be (I'm at a loss at the moment), and record them in our respective temperature environments (probably taking note of the exact temp at recording time). This sounds more like a science project, but I think there might be a real aesthetic difference in cold and hot recording environments. A difference that might be really interesting. I could even envision a compilation of this project perhaps. I don't know, just throwing out some ideas.
